A Shasta County man suspected of kidnapping a 17-month-old child was arrested by a Yreka California Highway Patrol officer just inside the California border on Friday morning.
The mother was reunited with her baby while the 37-year-old kidnapping suspect, Desmond Thomas Cloyd of Anderson, was arrested without further incident, the Yreka CHP said.
The Ashland Police Department contacted the Yreka CHP just after 10 a.m. Friday and said a child kidnapping had just occurred and the suspect was believed to be driving south on Interstate 5 in a silver 2005 Chrysler 300.
Ashland police said Cloyd was thought to be going to Yreka with the infant in the vehicle, also without being in a child safety seat.

Caltrans has been focused on the emergency work needed to increase the resiliency of this highway section to extreme weather, and the fixes made will allow for safe travel.

BIG SUR, Calif. - Highway 1 along Big Sur is expected to reopen by April 30 because work to repair a huge piece of roadway that crumbled during a storm is nearly two months ahead of schedule, the California Department of Transportation announced Thursday.
Crews began to fill the canyon below with compacted dirt in early March. They are expected to establish the base of a new road on top of the fill, then pave and stripe it by the end of the month thanks to favorable weather conditions, Caltrans said.
